Is there an ongoing government "cataclysm cover-up?"


Is there an ongoing government "cataclysm cover-up?"

In the months prior to and after the 2001 bio-terror anthrax attacks on the U.S.Congress, media, and U.S. Postal Service, there were a number of suspicious deaths of medical researchers, the most notable being that of Harvard virologist Dr. Don Wiley. An extensive investigation by this editor of Wiley's suspicious death in Memphis, ruled a suicide by the Shelby County Medical Examiner and the FBI, discovered that the Harvard scientists had not died from jumping into the Mississippi River from the I-40 bridge connecting Memphis to Arkansas, but was a murder, likely the result of Wiley asking too many questions about the source of the anthrax attacks.

History appears to have repeated itself last October. On October 20 at 8 pm, the body of UN seismographic monitoring expert Timothy Hampton was found at the bottom of a stairwell at the UN's Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty Organisation (CTBTO) offices in the E-Building of the Vienna International Center in Vienna, Austria. Hampton worked in the CTBTO's International Data Center Division, which collects seismographic data on tremors from 255 monitoring stations around the world.

UN authorities and Austrian police quickly concluded that Hampton committed suicide. However, Hampton's widow, an inspector for the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), and his sister in Britain believe that Hampton, who analyzed hundreds of underground seismometers around the world for signs of nuclear tests, believe the British engineer was murdered. They base their claims on a second autopsy requested by the family that revealed signs of a struggle and strangulation. The Austrian Times reported that there were signs that Hampton had been strangled and his body carried up the stairs from the 6th floor to the 17th floor and then was tossed down the stairwell.

Richard Benyon, Hampton's family's Conservative Party Member of Parliament for Newbury in the UK, was quoted by the Austrian Times as stating that Hampton's colleagues are fearful of their own lives with many refusing to work at night and morale at CTBTO being extremely low.

Austrian police had even attempted to burn the clothes that Hampton was wearing at the time of his death, before the investigation of his death had been fully completed. A little less than a year before Hampton's death, an American working for the UN in Vienna died under similar circumstances, with his body being found at the bottom of a stairwell. That death remains "under investigation" with no further information on the identity or job of the American and there have been reports that he, also, worked for CTBTO.

The death of Hampton and the fear among his colleagues at CTBTO may be related to the fact that the UN agency's global network of 255 certified seismographic monitoring stations may be recording cataclysmic changes in the earth's crust that governments and the UN want to keep secret from the public. The subsurface seismic monitors are able to distinguish between nuclear tests and natural tremors.

The recent spate of powerful earthquakes in Haiti, Chile (Concepcion-Santiago and the latest 6.3 quake in Antofagasta in the north), Taiwan, and the South Pacific suggest that contrary to what the U.S. Geological Survey (USPS) claims is "normal" is far from commonplace.

The CTBTO seismic monitor personnel were criticized for being on vacation on December 26, 2005, when a mega-quake struck off the coast of Sumatra generating a massive tsunami that killed over a quarter million people around the Indian Ocean littoral. The International Herald reported the agency's sensors could have detected, in addition to the earthquake, the tsunami thus preventing the tremendous loss of life from the massive waves that struck Indonesia, Thailand, Sri Lanka, and India. The CTBTO staff did not return to work until January 4, 2006. The system's hydro-acoustic sensors at the U.S. Navy base on Diego Garcia also had advance warning of the tsunami.

CTBTO seismographic monitoring stations are located in the areas of recent earthquake activity. There are stations at Ushuaia, Coronel Fontana, Limon Verde, Easter Island, Robinson Crusoe Island, and Juan Fernandez Island, Chile; Guadeloupe, Puerto la Cruz, and San Juan in the Caribbean; and Guangzhou, China.

The USGS's own records show that earthquakes have increased in frequency since 1977, with more damaging earthquakes predicted until 2014.

WMR has learned from sources close to the USGS that the agency, part of the Department of Interior, is "cooking" magnitude figures on earthquakes with a tendency toward downgrading them in strength. For example, WMR recently cited the following case: Two seismographic stations, one in Switzerland and the other in Romania, reported an 8.6 magnitude quake in Sichuan on 27 January 2010. There was a 5.2 quake in Sichuan on 30 January 2010 and it was reported by USGS. But nothing was reported by USGS on the 27 January quake reported by stations in Romania and Switzerland.

There are also reports that geo-thermal projects are being abandoned around the world because drilling has been connected with creating earthquakes. The Swiss closed down a project near Basel. The project was abandoned after three years of deep drilling into the ground was found to have caused a series of earthquakes. California also suspended its geothermal project." The firm conducting the drilling north of San Francisco, AltaRock, quickly removed its drill from super-hot bedrock and told the federal government the project had been scrapped. Last year, geo-thermal projects in Germany were abandoned after cracks appeared in homes in Kamen, near Dortmund and the village of Staufen began sinking from a nearby geo-thermal project. What were the drillers in Switzerland, California, and Germany encountering?

After U.S. government agencies were caught lying about weapons of mass destruction in Iraq, details about the hurricane Katrina disaster on the Gulf coast, and a number of other issues, the question can now be asked: Is the U.S. government engaged in a cataclysm cover-up?
